Brief history
Early members of Sapphire turned to Skype because it was the best form of communication known at the time. As Sapphire began to grow throughout 2012, it drifted away from Skype's services due to their relatively poor quality and lack of utilities.
In the summer of 2012, Emanuel proposed a transition to the RaidCall to the rest of the Founders, which was fulfilled. RaidCall was a new project that had seemingly promising features. Emanuel created the first RaidCall channel, sapphiredev, and served as the Server Admin.
After a short while, Caleb complained that Emanuel abused his powers too much. As a result, he defected and started his own channel called Dirty Sapphire. The Community of Sapphire came to the unanimous decision to join his channel. Although Caleb promised better conditions, Sapphire suffered even worse power abuse and corrupted administration here. It was during these times that members of Sapphire were beefing with each other nearly every day. The overall atmosphere of RaidCall was agitated and irritated. The general consensus was that the group needed an even better voice communication program.
After a bit of restructuring, Bryan set up a TeamSpeak server for the Community of Sapphire. The server has moved hosts quite a few times, due to inadequate service. Finally, in late 2016, the TeamSpeak server was moved to the same host as the website, eliminating the separate cost of the server.
